In this MDG scenario, the requestor updates a GL account in Manage G/L Account Centrally - Governance, submits the change request for alternate approval, and then the MDG team performs final approval. The workflow uses Display Change Requests for approver review and ends with Final check approved after replication to MDG and S/4HANA.
